Help me give my students art supplies so they can develop creative problem-solving and design skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Smith's classroom raised $827

My Project

My students are curious, creative, and eager to explore art in new forms.

To support their artistic growth, we need innovative tools like 3D printing pens, drawing materials, and craft supplies — along with essential storage to keep everything organized.

These materials will open doors to imaginative thinking and hands-on exploration, helping students take their ideas from sketches to 3D structures while building confidence and creative problem-solving skills.

Students will use the 3D printing pens to learn about form, structure, and spatial awareness while creating sculptures, models, and mixed media projects. The crochet kit will introduce them to fiber arts, improving fine motor skills and patience. Drawing and writing tools will support sketching, planning, and reflection across all projects. The storage bins and wagon will keep supplies organized and mobile, making cleanup faster and keeping our learning space functional.

This project will empower our scholars to explore new tools and techniques while building confidence and ownership in their creative process.
